Cinnamon Bark Extract

Cinnamon Bark Extract is taken from the dried bark of cultivated trees and is considered to be of much higher quality than extract derived from leaves. It contains an essential oil that is not only recognized for its soothing effects, but is also known to have antibacterial properties.

Glycolic Acid

Glycolic Acid is one of the naturally occurring fruit acids derived from sugar cane. It helps slough off the dry, rough uppermost layer, leaving skin looking smoother and healthier.

How to Apply:
- Cleanse the skin thoroughly before applying medication
- Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer one to three times daily
- Because excessive drying of the skin may occur, start with one application daily, then gradually increase to two or three times daily if needed or as directed by a doctor
- If bothersome dryness or peeling occurs, reduce application to once every day or every other day

Cool Kiehl’s Fact:
When our chemists developed Kiehl’s iconic Blue Astringent Herbal Lotion in 1964, its popularity took off almost from the start. Over forty years later, we attribute its appeal not only to its superior quality, but also its versatility. Kiehl’s male patrons tell us they use it as a post-shave treatment to soothe skin and prevent razor discomfort. Legend has it that Andy Warhol was a fan!

Rated 5 out of 5 by munkustrap178 I Always Have this on Hand!
I started using this product about 10 years ago. Ever since, I have made sure that I never ran out.
At the first signs of a blemish, I apply this a few times a day and before bed. While it is not an instant fix, I find that it does lessen the "life" of my blemish or pimple.
It can also be used on irritated areas due to ingrown hairs.
It is not at all drying and is infinitely more gentle than its drugstore cousins. One tube lasts me a couple of years, so buy away!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rose12 Best purchase for skin care that I've made
I could tell from the first day I used this that it was working. In at least 4-5 days of using it in the morning and before I went to bed, it cleared my breakouts!!! My skin is very oily and I am constantly getting teenager acne break outs. This blue herbal spot treatment balanced the oil production in my skin. I will continue using this product and recommend it to friends!!

Rated 2 out of 5 by Verified Reviewer feel tingly
I don't think this product works on me. I feel my skin tingly but see no effects. I don't have sensitive skin but my skin is a little dry and I have cystic acne. This might work on normal acne. Sorry not cystic acne and acne scar

Rated 4 out of 5 by lindzlea Works well!
I purchased this gel when I was desperate to clear up my "out of nowhere" deep pimples. While it's not a miracle, it clears up blemishes within a few days and my favorite part is that it does not cause over-drying like so many other products. It does sting when applied, but goes away in a few minutes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MrsFox My daughter is hooked
I bought this just to try out. My teen daughter had a breakout on her nose and forehead area, which has been the norm for the past year or so. I handed her the tube when it came and showed her how to use it. Well, after using it only once a day for 5-6 days her face is clear. Every day, all day, my daughter talks about this stuff. She says her face has never looked or felt better. I think I've created another Kiehls monster in the house.
